Tissue uptake of oxytocin by rat mammary gland, uterus, heart and skeletal muscle was demonstrated by incubation of these tissues with 3H-labelled oxytocin. Chromatography of tissue extracts showed that some breakdown of oxytocin had occurred after only 30 s. However, in all cases there was no breakdown of oxytocin in the corresponding incubation medium. This indicated that the breakdown of oxytocin occurred within the tissues.
Journal of Endocrinology is committed to supporting researchers in demonstrating the impact of their articles published in the journal.
The two types of article metrics we measure are (i) more traditional full-text views and pdf downloads, and (ii) Altmetric data, which shows the wider impact of articles in a range of non-traditional sources, such as social media.
